Karoo Route 62 Accommodation
From
young to old, Barrydale is on the radar of those in need of a haven
for body, mind and spirit. And, indeed, it has always been... The
original inhabitants were drawn to the region´s health-giving properties
at the likes of Warmwaterberg´s hot mineral springs. One William
Patterson first documented the spring in 1778 when he recorded what local
farmers already knew. In establishing the Warmwaterberg Spa as a
sanatorium in 1908, doctors must have recognised their patients´
need for quiet contemplation. |

and harmony, in this idyllic rural setting. The Heritage Garden was
